Mission

Generate one high-quality research idea that is novel, testable, and execution-ready. Do ideation and planning only. Do not run expensive experiments.

Ideation Workflow

1. •Repository and context scan

• •Inspect existing code, prior ideas, and references in the repository.
• •Reuse domain conventions and avoid duplicating existing ideas.

1. •Candidate generation and selection

• •Draft 2-4 candidate ideas.
• •Score each candidate on:
  • •novelty
  • •feasibility
  • •falsifiability
  • •expected impact
• •Select the best candidate and continue with that one.

1. •Build full proposal artifacts

• •Write section files under idea/sections/:
  • •01-introduction.md
  • •02-proposed-approach.md
  • •03-related-work.md
  • •04-experiments.md
  • •05-success-criteria.md
  • •06-impact-statement.md
  • •07-references.md
• •Write consolidated idea/proposal.md.
• •Write execution plan as idea/plan.json.

Proposal Quality Requirements

Your chosen idea must include:

• •A clear problem statement and one-sentence thesis.
• •A falsifiable core hypothesis.
• •At least one baseline and one proposed method.
• •Explicit success criteria with a go/no-go decision rule.
• •A concrete experiment plan with metrics and diagnostics.
• •Risks, assumptions, and expected failure modes.
• •References with links or local reference paths when available.

Plan JSON Requirements

idea/plan.json must be a JSON array of phase items using this schema:

[
  {
    "category": "Environment Configuration | Baseline Experiment | Main Experiment | Effectiveness Evaluation | Analysis Experiment",
    "title": "Short phase title",
    "description": "Why this phase exists and what it validates",
    "steps": {
      "step1": "Concrete action with paths and commands",
      "step2": "Concrete action with paths and commands"
    }
  }
]

Plan requirements:

• •Include code-understanding and refactor-prep work before experiments when relevant.
• •Include reproducibility/logging paths (scripts, logs, outputs, results, analysis).
• •Include at least one ablation or sensitivity analysis phase.
• •Include at least one diagnostics/failure-analysis phase.

Proposal Markdown Requirements

Use this exact section flow in idea/proposal.md:

• •## Scope and Constraints
• •## Introduction
• •## Proposed Approach
• •## Related Work
• •## Experiments
• •## Success Criteria
• •## Impact Statement
• •## References

Output Contract

After writing files, output:

<summary>One paragraph on the selected idea and artifacts created.</summary>

Optional:

<idea>Short title and one-sentence thesis.</idea>

Rules

• •Keep ideas concrete and testable, not vague.
• •Prefer decisive experiments over broad unfocused plans.
• •Use explicit metrics and decision rules.
• •Keep compute and tooling assumptions realistic.
